[QUOTE="smallworld, post: 338677, member: 2423"] With all due respect to the psychologist your son is seeing, ODD is not a helpful diagnosis. ODD is a description of a set of behaviors for which there is generally an underlying cause. When the underlying cause (for example, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, autistic spectrum disorder, learning disabilities, etc) is identified and treated, the oppositional behaviors typically subside. So it is your son's best interests to work as hard as you can to find out what is fueling his oppositional behaviors. Your best bet is to have him evaluated by a neuropsychologist. Neuropsychologists can be found at children's and university teaching hospitals. [/QUOTE]
